Each county DFCS offers support for Partnership Parents. 

The Adoptive and Foster Parent Association of Georgia is a statewide advocacy organization. The group supports the formation of local organizations through Regional Advocates.  For a listing of county associations, please follow the link to the AFPAG local associations page.

The Georgia Center for Resources and Support, a state wide project funded by the Georgia Department of Human Services, works to increase resources and supportive services for adoptive and foster families and reduce the incidence of disruption in Georgia.
